What is Stickle golf?
The combination of sticks, wiffleball and golf all in one.
How to play:
1. First, each player must find a large stick to use as their club, preferably one where the player be able get loft on the shot.
2. Find something to use as the hole. This could be a pit, a patch of dirt or anything you can find. The hole should be fairly big (approximatley 2ft. x 2 ft.) so that it is not impossible to make the ball in the hole.
3. Find two rocks or two objects to use as the tee box. Determine before you start the hole, what the par is.
4. Use a heavy duty wiffleball (or a pickleball) for the ball to play.
5. Each player tees off and then whoever is the furthest from the hole after each shot, proceeds with their shot/turn.
6. The player with the least amount of strokes on the previous hole goes first on the next hole.
7. The player with the least amount of strokes after all holes have been played, wins. Typically 6 holes are a good basis to play. Front 3 and Back 3.
I don’t have money to go play golf, so I’m going to play stickle golf instead.

5. Each player tees off and then whoever is the furthest from the hole after each shot, proceeds with their shot/turn.
